Abstract:
The thermoplastic olefin resin composition of the present invention comprises: a resin composition consisting of at least one modified polypropylene and a polyglutarimide, and an epoxy group containing copolymer. The modified polypropylene is one in which at least an unsaturated carboxylic acid or a derivative thereof is graft copolymerized onto a polypropylene. This composition has good mold processability and can be used to produce molded products which are superior in mechanical properties to those obtained from the individual polymers of the composition.
Abstract:

Abstract:
A developing device adjoins a rotatably arranged electrostatic latent image support member, and is internally provided with a rotatably disposed developing roller confronting the electrostatic latent image support member, a cylindrically formed flexible filmy or outer sleeve member having a peripheral length longer than that of the developing roller and loosely mounted around it, a couple of first members for biasing the filmy member against the developing roller to form a slack of the filmy member at a location confronting the electrostatic latent image support member, and a second member for forming a toner layer on entire external surface of the filmy member.

A quaternary ammonium salt of the formula (1), a composition containing the quaternary ammonium salt and an organic solvent, and an electrochemical device using the salt wherein R1 and R2 are both methyl and X− is BF4− or N(CF3SO2)2−.
Abstract:
An image forming apparatus includes a transfer material transportation device to transport a transfer material; a transfer device to transfer a toner image to the transfer material transported by the transfer material transportation device; a fusing device, disposed after the transfer device, to fuse a toner image on the transfer material transported by the transfer material transportation device; a registration device, disposed before the transfer device, to feed the transfer material, supplied from a sheet feeder, to the transfer device; and a biasing device, disposed for the registration device, to regulate movement of the registration device to decrease a speed difference between a transfer material transport speed generated by the transfer device and a transfer material transport speed generated by the registration device.
Abstract:
A semiconductor laser device includes a nitride semiconductor laminate structure including an n-type clad layer, an n-type guide layer formed on the n-type clad layer, a light emitting layer formed on the n-type guide layer and a p-type semiconductor layer formed on the light emitting layer. The nitride semiconductor laminate structure does not include a p-type semiconductor clad layer. The semiconductor laser device further includes an upper clad layer formed on the p-type semiconductor layer. The upper clad layer includes a first conductive film made of an indium oxide-based material and a second conductive film formed on the first conductive film and made of a zinc oxide-based material, a gallium oxide-based material or a tin oxide-based material.
Abstract:
A charged particle beam decelerating device includes a high-frequency cavity 34 provided on an orbit of a charged particle beam 1, and a phase synchronizing device 40 for synchronizing the charged particle beam 1 in the high-frequency cavity with a phase of a high-frequency electric field 4. By moving the high-frequency cavity 34 or changing an orbit length of the charged particle beam 1, the charged particle beam in the high-frequency cavity is synchronized with a phase of the high-frequency electric field 4.

Abstract:
Face detection is executed only on an image imaged based on an arbitrary (predetermined) focal point information defined in advance. In face detection, the face of a person is detected based on a relative value of statistics in a plurality of characteristic regions produced by contour or parts of the face of the person. Thus, even if the face in the image used for face detection is blurred, the statistics in a certain region can be acquired, and thus such face is detectable. Therefore, the primary subject to be focused can be rapidly detected without performing focal point control at a stage of preliminary imaging in the imaging apparatus.
